Pastor Isaac’s community cannot fully support the needs of their children. However, many of their basic needs can still be met. There are around 100 orphans in the area, many of whom have lost one or both parents to leprosy, malaria, or other tropical diseases. Pastor Isaac and the community work to provide these children with love, a safe shelter, food, and the necessities of life.
One of the biggest challenges these orphans face is education. Many of them cannot afford school fees, and some do not have a school within walking distance.
In January, I had the opportunity to visit Pastor Isaac, his church, his community, and the incredible children he cares for. Over the past 20 years, I have visited many communities throughout the developing world, including Africa, Asia, and Central America. One common issue I’ve noticed is the lack of resources available to these communities compared to those in the United States. However, many of these communities are thriving on a global scale, managing to meet their basic needs without external support from the West.
This is where the partnership between He is Worthy and Great Love Junior Academy comes into play. Through the vision of Pastor Isaac, Max, and Vicki Alston, these kids now have a place to go to school. When I visited, I saw a loving church, a caring community, and a group of believers who are truly committed to the well-being of these orphans. I saw a need—but I also saw a community that seeks God to supply all their needs. I see the potential for this community to truly make a difference in these children’s lives, both spiritually and educationally.
I can fully recommend and endorse Great Love Junior Academy and He is Worthy as fertile ground to sow your support. I encourage you to plant a seed and invest in the future of these children—children who have no other hope. Their hope is in Jesus and His church.
Please pray for these children and seek ways to make a difference.
— Pastor Hundley Harkleroad
